30 Years Have Passed Since The Seismic Alert In Mexico
Panoramic view of a pole with loudspeakers of the Mexican Seismic Alert System (SASMEX) in Mexico City, which has been in operation for three decades, which is the instrument that has allowed the population to be alerted -in most cases- about the occurrence of a possible earthquake. This gives a few seconds advantage to evacuate or take shelter in a lower risk area before the telluric movement is perceptible. (Photo by Gerardo Vieyra/NurPhoto)
